Only 29 percent of the respondents in case of demonetization and 27 percent of respondents in case of cashless mode of transaction were found to have favourable perception. Flexibility in payment followed by quick mode of payment, privacy of information, convenience/ Comfortability, ease of use in payment and rebate and discount were found to be the prominent aspects while taking decision for cashless transaction.
